Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of azole derivatives

Abstract

A new class of mono and bis heterocycles, sulfonylmethaneamido linked oxazoles, thiazoles, imidazoles, pyrrolyl oxazoles, pyrrolyl thiazoles and pyrrolyl imidazoles were prepared adopting simple and versatile synthetic methodologies. The compound chloro substituted imidazolyl styrylsulfonylacetamide is the most potent antimicrobial agent particularly against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Penicillium chrysogenum. © 2013 The Pharmaceutical Society of Japan.
